ORIGINAL: warspite1 Ahh the Whispering Death - alongside the Avenger, probably the most beautiful of the Allied aircraft in WWII [sm=00001746.gif] [image]local://upfiles/28156/1139345082614AEF85DA2A77DD86C0F3.jpg[/image] Uh. That's one ugly aircraft. The Spitfire is beautiful. The Mosquito is beautiful. The Mustang is beautiful. The Lightning is beautiful. The Beaufighter... Its one ugly duckling.[:'(] Deadly, maybe. Beautiful, no warspite1 Well beauty is in the eye of the beholder as a wise man once said [:)] The Spitfire is pretty, the mosquito and Mustang have elements of prettiness and beauty, but the Beaufighter is beautiful. She's got a tongue like an electric eel and she likes the taste of a man's tonsils. Oh yes, she's a lady with a past, she's been round the block a few times and knows where it's at. The Beaufighter is the aeroplane equivalent of HMS Warspite or USS Dakota [sm=00001746.gif]
